Kangxi, fifty-one years.
She had been counting the days and looking forward to the arrival of this day, but when the calendar finally turned to this page, Ruo Huan found that she was not as excited as she had imagined.
Could it be that the life in the mountain temple can really temper a person's heart?
Got it She didn't know, but what she knew was that history had not changed in any way because of her arrival.
At least so far, it was still following the trajectory she knew.
However, in just a few months, the prince's party had been reprimanded, demoted, and killed.
The biggest threat is no longer there.
Nowadays, Ruo Huan only hopes that Kangxi will forget her on Wutai Mountain forever.
Whether it is to die here or wait until the fourth master ascends the throne, she will go down the mountain and travel around.
She just doesn't want to do it anymore.
Back to the palace.
Such a simple day without calculation is so happy and so rare.
Xu Shitian heard her prayer, but there was no news from the palace, and Ruo Huan was able to continue living her leisurely and peaceful life on Mount Wutai.
She once thought that the life of a monk was boring and the life of a monastery was miserable.
But when she left the palace life and started living in the monastery, she understood the taste, like a person who knows whether the water is cold or warm when he drinks it.
Several years have passed since the "Second Waste", and when I think of the past years in the palace, it feels like a world away.
If there's anything wrong with it, it's that Master Xing Chi's mental state has become increasingly weak recently.
In the past, he could talk to her about Zen for two or three hours without rest.
Often, Ruo Huan would even complain about being tired, but he would still enjoy talking about it. , with no tired look on his face, he couldn't bear it for an hour now, and his daily fasting meal was much less.
The abbot invited a doctor from the mountain to consult, but there was no improvement.
Ruo Quan saw this and was worried in his heart.
After thinking over and over again, he decided to write a letter in the hope that Kangxi would send an imperial doctor.
Kangxi left a messenger, Ruo Huan knew about it, and Kangxi often exchanged letters with Master Chi on weekdays.
Ruo Huan handed the letter to the courier, specifically ordered the urgent matter, and watched the courier leave quickly until no one or one horse could be seen, then he turned back to the courtyard and went straight to Master Xingchi's meditation room.
Not three days later, a group of light chariots and fast horses stopped outside the temple.
However, Master Xingchi's efforts were exhausted, and Imperial Physician Lu was at his wits' end.
Ruo Huan had already guessed this in his mind, but when he heard Doctor Lu say it himself, he still couldn't help but feel a little sad.
I also thought that Master Xingchi had already lived a long life and died without any illness, so it was considered a happy ending.
The funeral of Master Xingchi was kept simple according to his last wishes.
Ruo Huan was dressed in plain clothes, with a mournful look on his face, and in his arms was a green ash jar containing the ashes of Master Xing Chi.
Doctor Lu thought for a while, then stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said in a low voice: "The emperor wants me to escort Ge Ge back to the palace.
Do you think we will start the journey?"
After opening his mouth, Ruo Quan turned slightly to look at Imperial Physician Lu, and said softly: "When I talked with the master in the past, every time I mentioned that the people now live and work in peace and contentment, and the world is at peace, the master always sighed with emotion at the emperor's wise decision to govern the world, and regretted that he never went there in person.
Let’s go and see with our own eyes.
Now that the master has passed away, I want to take the master’s ashes around and see, okay?”
"This," Imperial Physician Lu looked troubled, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Rong Chen will report Princess's request to the Emperor, and ask the Emperor to make a decision."
Ruohua nodded slightly and responded.
A few days later, Kangxi wrote back and approved Ruo Huan's request.
Imperial Physician Lu left a small team of troops to escort Ruo Huan, while he led the remaining troops back to Beijing.
Ruo Huan didn't know where she was going.
She had never asked about Master Xingchi's hometown, but she still had relatives.
She didn't even know Master Xingchi's real name.
Kangxi did not set a date for her to return to Beijing, so Ruoxuan could do as she pleased and point wherever she thought of.
She didn't know who the team that Imperial Physician Lu left for her belonged to or what their flag status was.
She didn't want to bother thinking about where the money came from after wandering around for more than half a year with comfortable food and clothing.

When traveling to a place, if it doesn't suit your liking, you can leave in three or two days.
If you live comfortably, it can take ten and a half months.
Whenever she arrived at a new destination, she liked to dress up in men's clothing and sit in the lobby of teahouses and taverns.
The Eighth Master was denounced, Junggar rebelled, the Empress Dowager died of illness, and the hottest topic at the moment was the majestic General King who was campaigning in the northwest.
In her memory, a young man once told her that if he had a choice, he would like to wear armor, hold a spear and a halberd, and be a general on the battlefield.
Before leaving a place, Ruoyuan would go to the waterside, or a moat, or a river or a lake, and sprinkle a handful of Master Xingchi's ashes, as if the Master had also left his footprints along the way.
Finally, the jar was empty, and Ruo Huan was a little confused about where to go next.
Thinking of the outside of the Great Wall, the most difficult period of her more than ten years in the Qing Dynasty was outside the Great Wall.
The weather was so cold and the wind was so strong.
No matter how thick the cloak or the warm hand stove were, they could not keep her warm at that time.
But I finally got over it.
The plug is so warm in June, who could have imagined how cold it would be in winter.
Setting up camps is what Eight Banners soldiers are good at.
Ruo Huan never thought that one day he would live the life of a herdsman, raising two lambs, catching a few rabbits, fishing in the river, and learning to milk cows, but it was a pity that the briquettes were not there.
Ruo Huan organized a hunting today, and he had good wine in the first place.
After getting along for more than two years, Ruo Huan had become familiar with several people, and they were much more relaxed in front of Ruo Huan.
Leaving two people to look after the house, Ruo Huan and the others got on their horses and ran all the way to the depths of the forest.
Ruo Quan is not interested in wine, she just wants to hunt two rabbits or roast wild jerounds for the tooth festival.
Speaking of which, she hasn't barbecued for a long time, and the last time seems to be on the birthday of the fourteenth.
It's just that although she has no ambitions, her cavalry was taught by Shisan and Zaltu.
She can't lose face to the two "masters" at any rate.
However, when Ruolan comes up, she is very satisfied.
Liao Jin hunted a rabbit and two wild jingles.
With the prey in hand, she was not very nervous anymore and relaxed in the woods leisurely.
"Jidu, why don't you go hunting with them?
I don't like the wine.
But I heard from Xiaoqi that you are a master of wine tasting."
Ruo Huan turned around and looked at Jidu who was following him silently.
"The slave's duty is to protect Princess."
Shrugging, Ruo Huan said: "There is no danger here, and no one knows my identity.
I'm really sorry for keeping you by my side like this."
"I don't dare.
The motto is too harsh."
"Okay, whatever."
"Be careful."
Before Ruo Huan finished speaking, Ji Du suddenly stepped forward on his horse, stretched out his long arms, and lifted Ruo Huan onto his horse.
Fang Yi stabilized Ruo Quan, then turned the horse's head with the rein in one hand, and drew out his sword to protect him with the other.
"Who" A few feet away, a middle-aged woman wearing Mongolian robes was sitting on a horse, still holding an arrow in her hand, and her expression was a little dazed.
When she heard Jidu's words, she came back to her senses, put away her bow and arrows, and fired.
Come forward immediately.
Ruo Huan also calmed down at this time, and roughly understood that if Ji Du hadn't taken action just now, he might have been hurt by the woman in front of him, but he didn't know whether the woman did it accidentally or on purpose.
"Are you okay?"
The middle-aged woman looked a little scared, looking up and down Ruo Huan's body.
Ruo Huan shook his head and said nothing.
Xu Shijidu's gaze was too oppressive, so the middle-aged woman spoke again: "I just saw a sika deer in the grass over there.

I was so anxious that I didn't notice you."
After hearing the middle-aged woman's explanation, Ruo Huan basically believed it and signaled Ji Du to put away his sword.
Jidu judged that the woman in front of him was indeed harmless, so he neatly put away his sword, helped Ruo Huan back to her horse, clasped his fists and said: "Just now something happened suddenly, I have offended many of my subordinates, please forgive me, master. " Ruo Huan shook his head, indicating that it was okay, and was about to leave when the middle-aged woman suddenly shouted: "It's you":
